It has been a very busy and interesting November. A few days of holidays in Spain, 2 weeks travelling in Northern India and a weekend at Ballymaloe Cooking School. I might post some of the India pictures soon…

It is time to go back to the kitchen. And, as Christmas is coming, I will start with a Spanish traditional Christmas sweet.

Mantecadas are made with lard (manteca). And it gives a different texture, they melt in your mouth.

Delicious with a good coffee. I had 7 or 8 since yesterday.

Not the healthier option but who is 100% healthy in this period of the year?
